Biography

The Afghan Whigs are an American rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio. They were active from 1986 to 2001, reformed briefly in 2006 and again from 2011 to present. The early core members were Greg Dulli (vocals, rhythm guitar), Rick McCollum (lead guitar), and John Curley (bass). The band rose up around the grunge movement, evolving from a garage band in the vein of the Replacements to incorporate more R&B and soul influences into their sound and image. They released their first album independently in 1988. The band then signed to the Seattle-based independent label Sub Pop. Their fourth album, Gentlemen in 1993, was their major label debut, released on Elektra Records. Pitchfork described them as "one of the few alt-bands to flourish on a major label" in the 1990s. Dulli frequently claimed in interviews that the band would never get back together following their dissolution in 2001; however the group reunited in 2012.
